<div class="entry-content"><p>So on Saturday, January 25th, starting at 9AM CST, we’re going to be meeting up
at the <a href="http://www.isotope11.com">Isotope11</a> offices at 529 Beacon Parkway,
Suite 105, Birmingham, AL 35209 for another hackathon.</p>
<p>The idea is that a few people will come with projects of their own to work on,
and some people might meet up and decide to hack on something together. So far,
here’s what we’ve got planned:</p>
<ul>
<li>Josh Adams will be working on building a <a href="http://keyglove.net">KeyGlove</a>.
He’s already ordered all of the parts, but if you wanted to build one too
there’s sufficient time for you to order the parts ahead of time so we can all
do it together.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you know what you want to work on, comment and I’ll add it to the post so we
can keep track of it up top. Looking forward to it!</p>

<div class="entry-content"><p>So the Google Hangout formula seemed to work out for this planning meetup. I’ve embedded it at the bottom of this post.</p>
<p>
We talked about quite a few things. It was agreed upon that we’d expect to see
a list of projects with sponsors, and that in general there’d only be one project
per sponsor. Then anyone who was interested in that project could sign on and say
“yeah, I’d like to help with that.” That’s pretty much all of the rigor that will
go into figuring out the projects ahead of time - we’ll organize online and hopefully
have a good feel for what we’re doing by the time that we arrive.
</p>
<p>
I’ve updated the
<a href='/first-hackathon-nominations/index.html'>potential projects</a>
list to reflect newly suggested projects. If someone feels that a project is dead,
feel free to submit a PR with it removed. If you want a project added, send a PR
with the new project (or mention it in a comment and we can help out).
</p>
<p>Within a week or so, we should remove projects that haven’t had a champion yet. If you’d like to nominate yourself as a champion for a given project, either send a PR with yourself listed on the project on this page, or mention it in comments (lazy) and we’ll put it up there for you.</p>

</p>
<p>
Participation in the hangout is optional. Members that prefer to attend the meeting at the
<a href='http://isotope11.com/contact'>isotope | eleven Offices</a>
are encoraged to do so.
</p>
<p>
Our adgenda for this meeting will be:
<ul>
<li>
Planning the logistics for the
<a href='http://bosshack.org/blog/2012/11/27/first-boss-hack-a-thon-scheduled/'>Hack-A-Thon</a>

Reviewing the current list of project
<a href='http://bosshack.org/first-hackathon-nominations/index.html'>nominations</a>
</li>
<li>
Whatever else comes up…
</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>
As is the case with any hacker meeting, familiarity with the technology involved (Google Hangout)
is encouraged. You may desire to share your screen, mute your audio, or put a mustache on your image.
Be Prepared….

I decided to use
<a href='http://octopress.org/'>Octopress</a>
for this blog since it works with
<a href='http://pages.github.com/'>Github Pages</a>
, it’s got
<a href='http://haml.info/'>HAML</a>
support and it’s a self-described
<em>blogging framework for hackers.</em>
As it turns out, the procedure for actually making a post is pretty
technical. I don’t want to the be the only one making posts about our
Hack-A-Thon(s), so here is the procedure for making posts.
</p>
<p>
<a href='http://octopress.org/'>Octopress</a>
is a self-described
<strong>blogging framework for hackers.</strong>
Most of the folks in the BOSS meetup
fit that description, so it shouldn’t be too tough for anyone. You’ll need a
<a href='http://github.com'>Github</a>
account, some rudimentary
<a href='http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/'>ruby</a>
and git skillz, and a burning desire to put something on the Interwebs. I’ll use
<a href='http://haml.info'>HAML</a>
for most of my posts, but you can use
<a href='https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll'>Jekyll</a>
or
<a href='http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/'>Markdown</a>
if you want.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Let’s get started!</strong>
<ul>
<li>
Fork it!
<p>
Make a fork of
<code>git@github.com:bosshack/bosshack.github.com.git</code>
</p>
</li>
<li>
Clone
<strong>your</strong>
repo and go to that directory (probably
<strong>bosshack.github.com</strong>
)
<p>
<code>git clone git@github.com:<strong>YOURGITHUBIDHERE/</strong>bosshack.github.com.git</code>
<br />
Most people will need to make changes to their own fork instead of the master
</p>
</li>
<li>
Add a remote named upstream that points to the master repo
<p>
<code>git remote add upstream git@github.com:bosshack/bosshack.github.com.git</code>
<br />
You may want to send a pull request if you have a post or changes to a post
</p>
</li>
<li>
Delete the contents of the
<strong>_deploy</strong>
directory if it exists. It shouldn’t
<p>
<code>rm -rf _deploy</code>
<br />
We’re gonna clone
<strong>your</strong>
fork
<strong>again</strong>
into the
<strong>_deploy</strong>
directory
</p>
</li>
<li>
Checkout the
<strong>source</strong>
branch
<p>
<code>git checkout source</code>
<br />
The source branch is where the posts and pages are written in your markup style of choice.
</p>
</li>
<li>
Clone your fork to the _deploy directory (seems redundant, right? - it’s kind of cool actually)
<p>
<code>git clone git@github.com:<strong>YOURGITHUBIDHERE/</strong>bosshack.github.com.git
<strong>_deploy</strong></code>
</p>
</li>
<li>
Bundle that Sh*t
<p>
<code>bundle</code>
</p>
</li>
<li>
Preview the site on port
<a href='http://localhost:4000'>localhost:4000</a>
<p>
<code>rake preview</code>
<br />
This command will watch the source directory for changes and
regenerate the site when something changes
</p>
</li>
<li>
Make a post
<p>
<code>rake new_post["My Awesome Post Title"]</code>
<br />
This creates a new file in the
<strong>source/_posts</strong>
directory with a filename like YYYY-MM-DD-my-awesome-post-title.haml with
<a href='https://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/wiki/YAML-Front-Matter'>YAML Front Matter.</a>
Feel free to change the extension to .markdown if you would rather edit in
<a href='http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/'>Markdown.</a>
</p>
</li>
<li>
Edit the file above as appropriate. Continually check your work in the browser and
in the session where you ran
<br />
<code>rake preview</code>
<br />
Any HAML/Markdown/etc errors will show up in the STDOUT of that command.
</li>
<li>
Add your post to the git
<strong>source</strong>
branch and commit
<p>
<code>git add source/_posts/*</code>
<br />
<code>git commit -m "Created an awesome blog post for bosshack.org"</code>
</p>
</li>
<li>
Push the changes to your fork and send a pull request to
<a href='https://github.com/bosshack'>bosshack</a>
if you want it included on the site.
</li>
<li>
If you run into any problems with these instructions, leave a comment below and I’ll update
them accordingly
</li>
</ul>
